CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET. TRADING BASIS ALL OUT OF GEAR New Oridm. Oct. 15.-The Tiroes Demo crat says: “The end of the week found the nice adjustment of the rotten trade little more than a memory, anil the talent and actual cotton merchant hedged about liy many limitations and licet by many fears and doubt*. The violence of recent fluctuations has unset the customary chan nels of trade, and rendered difficult even the most ordinary of transactions. Conse- quentlr, complications hare pllnl up rather than diminished. On the face of toe prop osition. the trading basis Is nil out of gear. Apparently, tho October option tuay with profit lie sold nxalnat spot cotton. A* a matter of fact, desirable cotton Is ou the excellent enough demand to command high premiums, hence tbe holder or long contracts has only low grade tenders to faar. On the other hand, the msn who wonld like to deliver the goods on Octolier hesitates to sell for fear that the grade differences may lie turned against the only sort of cotton he cares to unload In that way, because of the relative scarcity of the better grades.

Oct. 15.—With geueral ralus In the Southern cotton ficTt over Sunday, tho larger Interests working for a reaction of tbe market were compelled to cover shorts In Liverpool this moral was a sharp advance •... at one time. Later In the day. gfjio polnta of this was lost on profit-taking. Lnt the dose was some SO point*, or 40 American polnta. higher than Saturday. The amount of cotton purchased abroad must have l»een enough, or the amonut for sale ab normally limited. This Is the most ex cited advance^ of the season, and showed the possibilities of the cotton market at the present time. Outside of profit-taking, there was very little pressure on the mar ket, and January.rnled around 11.25. Opera tions were on sn extensive scale, and with more bad weather promised for tonight and tomorrow In the eastern l»elt. where frosts bnvo recently stopped growth, there was little disposition to sell short.
